I recently started my first aquarium/reef tank. I previously had a koi pond that I built, however, I moved to Pennsylvania to finish school and did not want to go through the process of digging another pond. I also thought setting up a fish tank may be a cost-efficient alternative (lol).
My tank is a 55 gallon corner, with a 20 gallon sump/refugium, Reef Octopus Skimmer, Kessil Ap700, x2 Hydro 825's, Bubble Magnus dosing pump, 60 lbs of live sand, 60 lbs? of live rock and a wide array of reef inhabitants!

So far I've had success which I attribute to consistency, testing, and making informed decisions. I can't say that I've been as patient as most people recommend with their reef tank but all parameters have been stable and great growth so far! Eventually looking to create a build thread!

Thanks,
Terry!
